Job 26 · Geneva Bible (1599) · Scriptures (Good Books Free)

¹ Bvt Iob answered, and sayde,

² Whom helpest thou? him that hath no power? sauest thou the arme that hath no strength?

³ Whome counsellest thou? him that hath no wisedome? thou shewest right well as the thing is.

⁴ To whom doest thou declare these words? or whose spirit commeth out of thee?

⁵ The dead things are formed vnder the waters, and neere vnto them.

⁶ The graue is naked before him, and there is no couering for destruction.

⁷ He stretcheth out the North ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing.

⁸ He bindeth the waters in his cloudes, and the cloude is not broken vnder them.

⁹ He holdeth backe the face of his throne: and spreadeth his cloude vpon it.

¹⁰ He hath set bounds about the waters, vntil the day and night come to an ende.

¹¹ The pillars of heauen tremble and quake at his reproofe.

¹² The sea is calme by his power, and by his vnderstanding he smiteth the pride thereof.

¹³ His Spirite hath garnished the heauens, and his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.

¹⁴ Loe, these are part of his wayes: but how litle a portion heare we of him? and who can vnderstand his fearefull power?
